The early evening sky
Steals the fading daylight
casting the moon light on the lake
reflection we see ourselves

Mother
The sun looks to you for inspiration
The sun shines brightest when it shines down on you
The birds sing your name from the tree tops
The blowing leaves applaud your heavenly concert
Clouds learn to float in the sky imitating your grace, love and affection
The tides of the oceans rise and fall seeking your attention
Thunder calls out your name, lighting flashes when you smile
Butterflies free themselves from their cocoons
Take their first flight in honor of your name
Flowers bloom in appreciation of your never ending
giving and doing for everyone around you
Cold snowflakes fall to kiss your cheeks
Warm wind blows to hug you tight
We are in comfort when in your presence
We are your children you are our mother
You mean the world to us
May God always keep you

How can the worst of me live so close to me
How can the worst of me live so close to me
There should be distance that Separates the dark clouds that gathering around my feet causing me to walk in a fog stumbling past the good things that will inspire onlookers to join me in a march
How can the worst of me live so close to me
The brick tied to my heart tied to regressions tied to second thoughts tied to I should not tied to I'm at it again tied to I have to stop this tied to now I've pulled them in tied to I feel the heat of hells door on the palms of my hands
How can the worst of me love so close to me
Demons perched on my shoulders like my personal gargoyles aged and weathered but determined to stay until the end only to fly away once I'm flat on the ground not breathing not moving not thinking not crying not looking for help not asking for favors not praying not hoping just laying
How can the worst of me be so close to me
